AND personally I think its physically impossible for a plant less than 1foot tall to produce 1.25 oz.
The largest pc grow I have seen was actually inside a server case. It yielded almost three ounces.

Your personal thoughts that have no founding in science, botany or other intelligent pursuits carry absolutely zero weight.

That's a link to a grow using only a singular 42w cfl. The end result was 10.1 ounces.

I only linked that because it is the most well done case I have a bookmark to. I have a couple that yielded over a zip but they are atrocious to look at and do not deserve a link.

Replace that 42 cfl with a 50w or larger cmh (or mh/hps for that matter) and it is easy to see how a yield more than twice that size is not only attainable but easily so given a small amount of tuning.

DUDE, learn to fucking read. He had 10.1 grams.......... And your telling me "Your personal thoughts that have no founding in science, botany or other intelligent pursuits carry absolutely zero weight"

where in fact, the grow was the thing with ZERO WEIGHT. 10.1gram pic being confused for 10.1 oz??? Maybe your opinions and knowledge of growing/horticulter should be inspected further before you try to jump on someone with your "false knowledge".


And Im sorry but there are WAY better PC set-ups here on RIU than on ICMag. I have nothing against stealth grows, or any grow for that matter. But I think people should be properly informed before they jump into a waste of time. If you have room for a PC case, you have room for a storage locker, or filing cabinet, or even a rubbermaid closet at under $100. Where as a PC you would have to take a part a machine that costs WAY more than $100. You do the math, waste money to waste space, or use money for a WAY better outcome.

AND not to tear you up even more. There is NO WAY you can put a HPS inside a PC case. You will melt everything in there before it is beneficial. The smallest a HPS comes in is 150w which is a security light basically. WHICH IS BIGGER THAN THE PC CASE ALMOST IN ITSELF. The heat would absolutely destroy any living thing inside that case. kiss-ass:roll:

Please, here is the pursuit your looking for. PROVE that a PC case works in a benefical amount that what you cured/harvested costs more than the money you put into it. In other words, your going to pay MORE for the grow than what you get out of it.


PLEASE find links for these so called OZ PC grows, or even ANY PC grow that gave more than $150 worth of herb. (when you spent over $150 on making it, paying for electricity, water & nutes)

Not being a COMPLETE asshole but come on.

Hey man, long time! Hope my opinion matters here, cuz you can sit back and watch me give this next muppet a fuckin lickin with personal experience and facts. However he may have you on the whole reading bit, jus sayin, lol.

someone with your "false knowledge".
He's not givin false info, just a typo. And who the hell are you anyways?

. I have nothing against stealth grows, or any grow for that matter. But I think people should be properly informed before they jump into a waste of time.
You are really wasting your own time debating this issue with nothin to back it up. The only one not properly informed here is YOU!
If you have room for a PC case, you have room for a storage locker,, or filing cabinet, or even a rubbermaid closet at under $100.Not necessarily, this is determined on an individual needs basis, you can't speak for everyone.

Where as a PC you would have to take a part a machine that costs WAY more than $100. Really, old PC's are everywhere, most ppl have a worthless one in their garage, computer stores sell empty cases NEW for $20 TOPPS!!!

You do the math, waste money to waste space, or use money for a WAY better outcome. If this is how you display your ability to do math, go back to school.

AND not to tear you up even more. There is NO WAY you can put a HPS inside a PC case. You will melt everything in there before it is beneficial.

You do know PC cases are metal right?You MUST KNOW since you built one of these yourself right? LOL I have designed a server case myself with one 70wHPS secutiry light and 2 42 watt CFL's. Simple and efficent ventalation made this possible. Some people are crafty. That case produced 3OZ over 4 plants.

The smallest a HPS comes in is 150w which is a security light basically. WHICH IS BIGGER THAN THE PC CASE ALMOST IN ITSELF. The heat would absolutely destroy any living thing inside that case.
You don't put the whole assembly into the grow box you NOOB! You need to take the ballast out and the wiring, and wire the bulb alone and mount it to the inside of the case, mounting the electronics(ballast) to the outside of the case. holy crap, really....and you're givin people shit???? With a simple fan mod i could easily use a 150 in place of my 70. kiss-ass:roll:
Please, here is the pursuit your looking for. PROVE that a PC case works in a benefical amount that what you cured/harvested costs more than the money you put into it. In other words, your going to pay MORE for the grow than what you get out of it. DUDE!!! I have a PC case, with 3, 42w CFL's. I grew 2 topped and lst'd ladies in there that collectivly yield'd 35 grams DRY!!! Oh in 72 days 12/12 from seed. So seriously GO FUCK YOURSELF!


PLEASE find links for these so called OZ PC grows, or even ANY PC grow that gave more than $150 worth of herb. (when you spent over $150 on making it, paying for electricity, water & nutes)

COST OF MY SETUP!
Large PC tower case - Free, but we'll say $20 for fun.

PC fans, Mine were Free, but $2.50 new

3 CFL's prices vary all over, but lets say $10 a piece. Mine were $2 on sale.

Wireing Free, sockets free, Mylar sun shield, $1

Dirt for 2 plants $1

All purpose nutes and basic flower nutes, $5

Oh and a light timer...$3

Worst Case Senario Grand total...$47

My personal costs ........................$16

Some resourseful people can pull this off with STYLE. So where are you getting this $150 number from.

I spent $16 on the setup and about $40 in electricity TOPPS!!! And yeilded 35 grams DRY!!! Next grow i spent nothing, because OH LOOK, i already built one cool, i guess i can keep it forever.

So tell us all again, how impossible is it? How much of a waste of time and money it is? Fuck man it pays for itself the first grow.

Not being a COMPLETE asshole but come on.
Actually you have been a complete asshole. And now you've just had your ass handed back to ya. And no one here has to Justify anything to you by means of providing threads so you can see what you claim is imopssible. Go do your own research, it's all out there.

Point?

I already killed this argument before you made it. He used a singular 42w cfl. Most pc growers use three or four when they use cfls. I have see up to 8. Then I went on to mention HIDs.

Also that was a midsized tower. Roughly half the square footage of a server case.

Talk about reading comprehension.

A pc case, when purchased brand new, costs only 50 bucks. I don't know where you live, but by me you can easily pick up a used case for about five bucks from any of the businesses that do computer repair. People leave dead machines behind all the time.

Hey can you happen to guess what size most of the dead, and generally older, cases are? Full size ATX.

AND not to tear you up even more. There is NO WAY you can put a HPS inside a PC case. You will melt everything in there before it is beneficial.

Re-read this. Realize how stupid you actually are.

The smallest HID is 38w. Not 150. If you're talking old tech the smallest is 50w. Stop being a dumbass. Also, no one uses the actual fixtures. That would be as stupid as putting molasses in a hydro res...

...or claiming that the smalles HID available is 150w.

http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=145456

There's a link to a 100w case. Epic fail on your part. You make arguments based off of made up numbers and theorem. You, good sir, are fucking stupid.

Cooltubes have been part of the horticultural world since long before you started thinking about growing weed. To either be completely ignorant of them (or willfully ignorant of them) just proves how bad you are at either growing or making a valid point.

I recommend reading. I know it might be hard for you, but I promise you can do it!


Edit: Pwned.


Edit2: Sgt!!! How be you? Both of the surviving stragglers are now beautiful flowering lovelies. You wouldn't believe it if you saw them :)
 
Yes we def. need this sub forum!!!While were all here, i was wondering what is the best way in your opinions to grow in a case to get the most or best for your limited space?:joint:

guys, we are here to discuss getting a new stealth subforum created, not to argue over wether this or that grow area/method works or is worthwhile. that is not helping our cause.......

i would love to have one
stelth does not mean mini does it
i thought it meant under radar kind of thing
i grow in a grow tent but it is in basment not in living room or kitchen is that stelth

good luck
1love
